Turn around time for a pap smear is the time it takes for your physician to get your test results from the lab. The time is measured from when the cervical sample (pap smear) is taken to when the results are reported to your physician. Labs are now offering 24-48 hour turn around times for pap smear results. This is a routine test and there is no reason why it should be rushed in most cases. When test results are rushed, more errors are made. A physicians office should not choose a lab based on speed, but often do.
If you had heavy bleeding at the time of your pap smear, the lab may advise that the cells were partially obscured. The bleeding won't cause a seriously abnormal pap. Talk with your health care provider about your pap results and recommended follow-up.
